Metallic aluminum reacts with mno2 at elevated temperatures to form manganese metal and aluminum oxide. a mixture of the two reactants is 67.2% mole percent al.

find the theoretical yield (in grams) of manganese from the reaction of 290g of this mixture.

Explanation:

To find the theoretical yield of the equation. First identify the limiting reactant in a chemical equation.

Step 1: write out the equation and balance it.

Al+ 3mno2=3mn+ 2Alo3.

The limiting reactant is mn02 because it is not found in excess.

Step 2: convert the % to gram . All contain 67.2% mole and mno2 will be 100-67.2= 32.8

All=67.2÷100×290(total gram of the reactants)=194.88g

Mno2=32.8÷100×290g=94.12g.

Step 3:calculate the molar mass of mno2 and that of mn. The atomic mass of mn is 54.9380 and that of oxygen is 16.

Mno2=54.938+ (16)2=86.98g/mol.

Mn=54.938.

Step 4:

From your balanced equation , calculate mn.

94.12g mno2× (1mol mno2÷86.98(molarmass) of mno2×3 mol of mn/4molAl×54.938g of mn÷1mol of mn.

94.12g×1÷86.98g×3÷4×54.938÷1

=44.58g

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
